This study focused on developing and evaluating a Portable Personal Hygiene system designed to provide an easy and efficient sanitation solution for campers. Traditional camping hygiene setups often fall short in terms of efficiency and real-time monitoring, which can lead to problems like running out of supplies or not being able to track inventory. To address these issues, this project incorporated microcontroller and NodeMCU to improve the dispensing and management of hygiene products. The system integrated both hardware and software to dispense products, create private spaces, and monitor inventory in real time. was built using durable galvanized steel and runs on solar power, making it both practical and eco-friendly for outdoor use. Therefore, this study’s objectives involved developing and evaluating such a system by integrating hardware components like Arduino Mega microcontroller and ESP8266 NodeMCU for data transmission and inventory monitoring for software functionalities, including data analytics, and notification for sold stock, added stock and low stock notification. Evaluation by a diverse user group revealed positive assessment across functionality, performance efficiency, usability, reliability, safety and security. The overall mean score of 4.48 further validates the system’s effectiveness and user acceptance, signifying a “Very Acceptable” level of performance.
